Welcome to Below Deck Down Under Season four, Episode seven When Egos collide.
B
Oh, my God. This episode, this season, this season is tremendous. Like, what do we do to deserve this season? I mean, Below Deck down under has, I would have to say, an unblemished track record every season that they've had. I think this is their fourth season. Everyone has been excellent. I don't know what the special sauce is, if it's this, the, the showrunners behind the scenes, whatever's happening, whatever's going on with the casting, what it is so good. I'm like, every season I'm always like, this is the best season of Below Deck down under yet. Because last season, last season was maybe their weakest. That it was still so good. That was. That whole thing with. There was like, well, I, I can't remember anyone's names, of course, but like Zarina versus Laura. And then there was that short Boson guy. I was like, oh, I was drawn into that. And then the one before that, there was, it was, there was lots of. There was some very serious stuff in the second season, but it was also very compelling tv. And then the first season was.
A
This is definitely the best. I think this one, this, I think
B
this is the best because it's like hitting on all fronts on so in so many ways. Like, it's not a one dimensional season. Like there's so many things happening and the things that are happening are also intertwined and connected to each other in a way that I find to be very, very compelling.
A
Yes, I agree with you. I'm loving this season. It's fantastic.
B
Yeah.
A
And it's pissing me off, which I think is good. You know, there's so many people. The captain's piss me off. You know, usually the captains don't piss me off. I mean, Sandy had a couple seasons there. Geez. Sandy definitely gave me a couple of pissed off seasons. But for the most, she doesn't really anymore. I mean, I don't really find the captains generally that offensive. But Jason has really been pissing me off and it feels great. I love it. I love the anger. It's coursing through me. But kind of an offensive way, like it's nothing you really carry. That's the kind of anger I like when you can get really upset about something and then go on with your life, you know, it's not like bothering me that during the day. So, you know, thank you for being non offensively offensive, Jason. Thank you.
B
Yeah. I feel like last week was the week where I was really angry at Jason because I thought the Jenna demotion was Totally ridiculous. Oh, oh, oh. And by the way, so this guy, Eddie, this schmuck Eddie. So I was like, I want to, I want to, I want to learn more about Eddie, whatever his Last name is, Mr. Mustachioed Inflatable Baseball Bat. So I was like, let me look, let me see what this guy is all about. So I went to his Instagram and he has so many problematic things going on on his Instagram. If you look at his grid, it all just seems like, whatever, it's me yachting. But if you look at his, his shares or his reposts, it's all like, it's like full on problematic.
A
Like he had a video, like manosphere stuff.
B
Manosphere stuff. Oh my God, Charlie Kirk stuff. But he had a video that was like. It was like a scene from Pocahontas. I only watched it with audio off and it was like the, from the cartoon Pocahontas. And this is named John Smith, whatever the blonde guy is, is talking about Hondas and he's like, this is like talking about like how basically how colonialism has helped the lives of quote, unquote savages. I don't know if that's real dialogue for movie or not. I've never seen Pocahontas. But then like, the video is like showing all the glories of like the, the, the. The British Empire and how it has spread far and wide and how like all these cultures have like benefited from it, etc. Etc. And like, it's just one of these things. Like, it just felt so retrograde. I was like, are we in 1905? What is happening here? And he just had so many videos that were like that that, you know, he had some, he had some other ones that I, I just didn't, I didn't commit them to my brain. And I'm just, I'm still like, I'm still on, like, I'm still winding up. I'm still like sort of waking up in a sense from a long weekend. But I just remember it was like one video after another of like. And I was like, oh, this guy. Like you called it Ronnie. You kept on calling him an incel. And I was like, hahaha, he is totally an incel. But then I watched it. It's like, oh, he is, he is.
A
He gives, he gives big intel vibes. Big.
B
Yeah.
A
And he also. I don't ever trust people who purposely look like an extra in a period, like western or what's that thing I just watch that Death by Lightning show or you know, like a Settler. Settler stuff, like early settler type stuff, like westerns or kind of that time period. And he looks like that on purpose. You know, he looks like somebody who would have shot the president in 1905 or something.
B
He looks like he could be on a wanted poster. It's like he said, you know, who's going to be my. My style icon? Sam Elliott.
A
Yeah. Or the. The Sam Y. Smith, you know, Yosemite Sam.
B
Yity Sam Y. Smith. I like that. Yam Smith. Yo. Samity Smith. Yosemite Sam. Very Yosemite Sam.
A
Yeah.
B
But so anyway, it just was like, okay, it was. It was just one of those things where it's like, oh. Unfortunately, the read is totally accurate. He really is one of these sad men who, you know, finds validation through these ridiculous, ridiculous, you know, outlets. And I just. I just have no respect for the guy. None whatsoever. And that's what made it even more cringy. Watching this episode, watching him do his sad sack thing. I'm just a good guy.
A
I'm just a good guy. Yeah. And he is doing that a lot this episode. And he's doing the whole. You know, this is another clue. Whenever someone's like, I hate that. You know, I never would have. None of this would have ever happened if it weren't for that loose woman, you know, that kind of attitude. And the second the woman is crying, they're like, oh. They swoop right in, like, oh, can I be there for you?
B
You know, feel so bad.
A
They see someone vulnerable and they go right in for the kill. You know, it's. It's always guys like that. Always, always, always pieces of shit. So that's that. So Eddie sucks. So here we are. We pick up where we left off the whole fish dinner, where people did not know how to eat a whole fish. I don't blame them. And they're dealing with the bones. And then Daisy went to make drinks, and then Ben had to do it. So Ben is fuming from this, and he's talking to Jenna and he's like, this is the most awkward fucking thing I've ever done in my life. Really? Because you were trying to fuck a childish woman less than half your age on a bed without a sheet last week. So, yeah, I would say this might be on the list, but it's not the worst.
B
And, like, you had ample time to pivot. Okay, Daisy told you, don't do this. Do you really? Are you really going to look at. At this crew and say, oh, this is the crew that can debone a fish tableside and he's. And Ben is up there and he's upset that there's not more people helping out. It's like, where is everyone? Oh, do you want Alicia to come up and debone a fish? She couldn't even put the sugar in the cheesecake and now you want her to do a delicate operation tableside. You fucker. What the hell is he thinking about?
A
You've done nothing except complain. How shitty services this whole season and now you expect them to be able to do bone of fish in two seconds. No, sir, he did this on purpose to start shit with Daisy. And I'm really glad that it didn't work. I think that happened. I think if it was any other captain, if this was Sandy, it would have worked. Sandy would have been like, well, you know, this is. We got to really, you know, work on this. You know, we gotta hug the fish until the bones come out or whatever. She would have been pissed. She would have given a lecture. But Jason just wants to go to bed.
B
He's like, yeah, maybe Jason should have stepped up and said, how about this? We'll take these fish downstairs and we'll debone them there, we'll bring them back up. And that way Ben could have done it downstairs. Maybe his sous chef could have helped. But. But as it was right here, this was absolutely ridiculous. And it was all Ben's stupid bruised ego for the fact that Daisy had the, had the gall to tell him Crew launch at 11. Cuz he was spiraling after that. He's like, oh, she doesn't got to tell me one crew launches. The fact that she comes me orders, I don't know. It's like, you know what, sir, why are you, why are you feeding all these people whole snappers? They don't know how to deal with it. They don't want to deal with it. This is, It's a mega yacht. It's a mega yacht.
A
It's a mega yacht, Sandy. It's a mega yacht. Yeah. So he's pissed off with Daisy and bitching about her as loudly as possible. But you know, Daisy I think gets let off the hook a lot because we just really like Daisy. But also Daisy's ridiculous to how she's like, oh my God, you want me to debone a fish? I'm going to go make drinks and just leaves without any, sir. I mean, that was pretty crazy too. I think she's like, okay, you're going to try and throw me under the bus in front of the captain. Watch what you get to do in front of the captain, you know, so she plays back at it. But that was also. I mean, there was nobody from service up there, so just. I also bit fair. While I'm calling Ben the inside plastic sack full of wine in a Franz
B
you box literally should not have to keep it fair. You actually don't have to keep it fair because we're a podcast and we're not the New York Times.
A
I'm a very. How dare you say I'm not like the New York Times wish.
B
New York Time wish. National Geographic wish. Sorry, I don't know why.
A
National Geographic surprise wish.
B
Wall Street Journal wish. Here's the thing, okay? I'm going to give Daisy an out because I'm willing to build an excuse for her. I have to imagine that while they're sitting there deboning this fish and it's taking forever, the guests are getting restless. They already were restless. So she's like, let me make them drinks to make them happy while they wait for their fish. So I kind of feel like she was doing something like that. Although I did have an instinct that was like, why are you down there? Like, why is not someone else making the drinks? You should probably should be up there overseeing this operation. But she probably was like, I don't want to be. Yeah, I. I want to stick it to bed. And you know what? I think, actually, I like to believe my theory that she was getting drinks to. To. To occupy the guests during this moment. But even if she weren't, even if she was getting back at Ben, I think it's deserved. She gave him full warning, fair warning, and she still did what he requested, and it was a shit show. And it wasn't a show because she undermined it. It was a show because it was always going to be a shit show.
A
Yeah, it was. It was destined to be a show. So he's pissed. He's having a fist, and he's like, well, I was hoping that the majority of these guests would be okay with a whole fish, which is how I like to eat it. Oh, okay. The spectacular display of having a local fish. But Daisy, obviously, you know what a local display, it would be a beautiful display to catch the fish, gut the fish, grill the fish. I'm at a restaurant. You better get that shit done for me. Get this whole fish out of my way. And you know what else? Why do they keep serving branzino whole? I'm so sick of this trend. I'm sick. I'm more sick of that trend than I am sick of Brussels sprouts. In my fucking face on every. I'm sick of it. I've had it. These branzino, do you know how tiny those bones are?
B
They are teeny tiny.
A
Hardest bones to get out of a fish. And that's the fish they serve whole, you know? Well, when we did it, it was like the Chilean sea bass or whatever. The Patagonian toothfish, whatever. Those are bones. Those are bones you can deal with. Oh, no, it was ludomare anyway. But those are bones you can deal with, not this fucking.
B
Excuse me, what did you say about. You know, that's a curse word. It's ludomire, not Lou the mered. Oh, since when is the mayor named Lou? What's that about me and John Mayer? Well, yes, we did have sex. What? No, we didn't. Okay. Turns out it was that kid from Southern Hospitality. Still fun.
A
Just in case anybody's wondering, a ludom is a Mediterranean sea bass. So I got the sea bass, right?
B
But the rest of it, sea bass is just always getting. Always getting rebranded.
A
You know why? Because they're big boned. I feel like a lot of us who grew up big boned, that was like a criticism. People like, oh, Ronnie, there's Ronnie. He's big boned. They're like calling me fat. But a fish, If a fish is big boned, it's like, yes, I want to eat that fish whole. Give it to me. Want to eat it.
B
I'm gonna have a whole fish tonight. I've decided because I really want to practice my deboning after this whole fiasco. My takeaway is that I. I really want to learn how to do this. We talked about this last week and how you had to do a table side, etc, and I would like to give it a good college try. So I am going to get myself a whole fish. It might be a branzino, because I think that's like a nice sized fish for one. And yeah, I'm gonna. I'm gonna give it a college try because I'm sick of it. I'm sick of these bones. And I got to learn how to
A
get those bones out just to practice with the bones. That's good.
B
Yeah, do a little.
A
Give me a breast. A fish breastfish breast.
B
One little. One little teat. Little fishy teeth.
A
You know what I'm eating tonight? A microwave sweet potato. Doesn't that sound delicious?
B
I had one of those yesterday for lunch.
A
That's all I have. Too lazy to go to the store. And my dad's like, oh, you're leaving for New York. We should try and have dinner. What part of I'm I am memorizing lyrics as Tamra don't you understand? Okay,
B
what part of me singing a song in full Gina kirschneheider voice do you not understand? This takes time and effort.
A
I'm going to be working on a turban for Dorinda medley. I have two days left. I think I'm going to go eat with you. Get a life. Father.
B
I want to say that I had a sweet potato that I had, I made last week from my vegan cookbook and I made it with vegan, vegan yogurt. And I what was great was it was sort of like a South Asian preparation. So you also make kind of like a, like a green sort of like chutney, like a minty jalapeno chutney and then also some tamarind sauce. And I have to tell you, divine and tamarind sauce with a sweet potato is like a match made in heaven. And I think next time you do your, your, your sweet potato lunch or dinner or whatever it is, consider adding, adding some tamarind sauce.
A
I will give, I will say I do not have that as a staple in my house. So what I'm going to do, it does sound delicious. So maybe I'll get it next time I go to the store. But I think I' just using good old fashioned harissa. This is going to be very hot and sweet. That's it. Very simple.
B
That works as well. Or next time you order Indian food, just ask for a little thing on the side. Oh, that's smart.
A
And now I would just like to acknowledge that the audience is asking themselves why they're here. So sweet potatoes, this little sweet potato recap. Let's get into it. It's time for a commercial. It's time for a crappens commercial.

A
So Ben is pissed, and Daisy's like, oh, service is a total shit show. Jenna's like, why are you serving fish with bones? Have sex with bond people that are ahead of you. Bun.
B
And so Ellie, she's slowly moving into Tamra Tamara territory.
A
It's because I just said camera.
B
Yeah, yeah.
A
Fish with the bone. Nobody needs that fish with the buns. I didn't even know if you said bones.
B
I feel bad about the fish. That's. Gina's a steal. A little beyond about your stripes, so.
A
Well, this isn't going great.
B
And Ben's like, not great.
A
Yeah, not great. Daisy wasn't around. Gerard was filleting someone's fish. Filleting, I should say, which was really awkward. I mean, my God, that guy was sweating all over the fish. He called it a thundercut fitness.
B
Oh, my God, yes. She know Daisy should be able to fillet a fish. Like, that's like silver surface. It's just weird, mate. Like, I don't think it's that Daisy had a problem doing it. It's that it was only going to be her and she needed help. Otherwise, someone's gonna wait eight minutes for their fish. So, like, also, that's the issue, Ms. Ellie.
A
Oh, and silver service. Oh, really, Ellie, because you're. You're a stew. So why don't you get up there and show them how it's done? If you know how to do it. If she knew how to filet a fish, she would have been up there in two seconds proving that she could do better than Daisy. You know, she could have. But you didn't know how to do it either. So stop standing up for Ben. I do not believe you, ma'.
B
Am. Yeah. A wise man once said, filet o fish. A hamburger, a cheeseburger, a happy meal. Thank you, everyone. So Ellie said, at least Ellie's like. She says she sits on a very high horse. And what we've seen from servers has been a disaster. I'm like, you guys sent out six whole fish. What do you expect to happen? Do you think those bones are just gonna magically just come out of it?
A
You.
B
You know, you've said yourself, like, who else? Like, if you think. Okay, okay, I know. We don't need to litigate this because we're everyone's on the same side. But listen to what they're saying. They're like, oh, God. Like Daisy, she's no good. She's no good. And then they're saying, well, we gave her. We gave her a fish to debone, and she couldn't even do that. Well, you just were saying, she's no good, so why would you do that in the first place? Right, Exactly.
A
And also, you just send out eggs with dish soap on them not too long ago.
B
And there's.
A
So let's. Let's just reel it in, okay? No pun intended.
B
People in glass houses shouldn't be throwing bottles of Dawn. Okay? So Ben is like, well, I know. And you've got one girl on service, and that's what we're up against. We've just been under such pressure from her that we assume she's gonna do a job. I think that's what everyone's assuming from you, Ben, actually.
A
Really? It says, the man who can't filet a fish for people because he's got
B
a frosted cake all of a sudden.
A
So now we go to the guest eating, and they're like, oh, my God, this fish is incredible. You know, I'm billionaire France, and I love fish like this. Ask my billionaire friend, Sutton Foster. She loves it. I'm at her house in London right now.
B
I give this one five piles of mulch out of five. I do backyards. So Daisy's like. She's like, well, what time do you want hot breakfast? They're like, 8am Please, for a continental breakfast. So Jason's like, well, excuse me, I've got to go check in on the anchor and spray some sandalwood on my neck and maybe get into a kimono. I've said too much. Goodbye, everyone.
A
On halfway through the season of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Those ladies are crazy. Good luck to you all. Enjoy your dessert. Right, so now we go to the galley. Jason comes down and he's like, yeah, your service was a bit low. The whole night was pretty hectic's like, yes, sorry. It could have been good. But whatever. Whatever, Daisy.
B
So then Joao and the. And the crew are in the stairwell, and he's like, well, we're going to walk out now. And then Jason will come through with a birthday zim cake. Like, okay. So they go out to the dinner table, and Jason is scantily clad, and he's like, hello. And then Joao, all the guys are basically in naked, and Joao's like, hello, ladies and gentlemen. It's someone's birthday and you've got a surprise. So then Jason comes out, and he's got, like. He's got, like, a little inflatable snake and everything. Because it's like, Garden of Eden. And he's like, sexy Adam. And they're like, wow, yes, Queen, yes, we'll have one. We'll have what he's having, etc. Etc.
A
You gotta love the Garden of Eden. God. The beginning of telling gays that we're going to hell. So what gay person wants to celebrate Bible things? Come on, man. I mean, I know it's because it said garden in it, but aren't there other guard Secret garden, you know? Well, maybe that would be creepy. Be like a little girl whose parents died as a party. But still, you know, there's other spoiler things. It was the plague, okay? It was the play.
B
What about, like, garden? Like, what's a really good garden? I feel like that's a really. There's like, a really good garden that should be turned into, like, a party theme.
A
Just Lowe's. Like, Lowe's Garden Evil. Just do a Lowe's. Everybody wants to find somebody from a Lowe's. We've all seen somebody we want to at a Lowe's, have. That's a good gay party. You know?
B
Everybody wants to Someone at Lowe's. Everybody needs to get railed between trees. Something in my car just tells me the garden center is where I'll get blown. Okay.
A
Yes. See? Boner. Instant boner. So now they get strawberry cheesecake. And then we go to Jenna and Joao at the bar. And Jenna's like, has any tried to spit Jenna? That super said that has Jenna. Cat, stop asking about Eddie, okay? Leave Eddie alone. Go get attention from somebody else. I know we're on a gay charter, but I don't know, go flirt with one of them.
B
Okay? I mean, I wouldn't say using Eddie, but definitely secret. I need to work on seeing validation for men. And it's a big reality check. I've got work for. I determine to get my stress back. What was that? I got my stress back. You're gonna get your stress back.
A
Straps.
B
Strap. Strap. Like, strap Throat strap.
A
Yeah. So she's like, yeah, I need to. I need to stop working on getting validation from men so Ben and Eddie can both kick rocks. But she doesn't listen to herself for the rest of the episode. She's like, okay, I'll just keep going to do it anyway. So she's like,
B
Jenna is like someone who loves going to a parking garage 10 times a day. Just she needs a lot of validation. Yeah, a lot of it. Yeah. So now Daisy and Alicia are serving the table, and the guest is like, hey, are you the second stew? And she's. And Daisy's like, no, Alicia's not my second stew. I currently don't have a second stew. I mean, look at this one. She's an idiot. She's balancing a water jug on her head for no good reason. And look, I just fell off. I mean, I could have told you that would happen. And now she's got one of those Bronzinos on her head. We weren't even seeing her serving Bronzino. Hell was Red snapper. Where'd you get the Bronzino from? I'm telling you, she's a real idiot. So, no, she's not the second stool.
A
Oh, and Alicia says when Jenna got demoted, there was a bit of me that thought maybe she can see me in that role. Why would anybody see you in that? Can we list the shit that you've done this season? Are you fucking crazy? Isn't this your second time ever being a Stew, first of all? Yeah, yeah, first time. Isn't it your first time ever being a stu. Because she was a. She was a sous chef G hand the last time.
B
Yeah. What. In what way did she think that she was deserving of being the second Stew? Like, she's just so lucky that the rest of the boat has started. Be turned into a show for the second half of the season that basically we're able to take our foot off the gas pedal with her. But Alicia. Alicia has been a total disaster all season long, and now she's like, I thought I could be seconds to like. Because you could do hospital corners on a bed. Come on.
A
Can she? Have we seen proof of that?
B
I'm not even sure.
A
Yeah, I don't sure.
B
I'm not sure.
A
So she's like, yeah, I could do that role. I mean, I'd probably lay down the law a bit more. I'd delegate a bit more. Yeah, we don't need you delegating. We need you knowing how to do the actual job first. Okay, crazy pants,
B
please. So Jason's like, all right, everyone, so the breakfast is going to be around 8ish. So we'll do a slide in the morning. And good job, everyone. Good job deboning that fish and mangling it and making it look terrible. By the way, we, through all this, one thing that we have not really articulated is that when the guests are eating their fish, like, their plates look crazy. It's Just like shredded, mangled fish that winds up on all their plates. It looked like someone was making tuna salad and stopped midway through. It was. That did look crazy. It looked crazy.
A
So Daisy is with Joao and she's like, what were the golly bitching about me earlier? He's like, well, I think they're just bitching because I did the zim laying. You know, I zimmed those fish right up with the knife. And I don't think they like that
B
very much, but you could. Over here. Come on, let's go outside. Tell me out here. And so then Ben's like, well, I wasn't even allowed in the Garden of Eden. I'm cooking in hell for everyone. Is anyone here to appreciate my wood? My biblical witticisms here? No? Okay, back to you, Daisy, out there with. Wow.
A
Well, I'm just pissed off. I'm like, yeah, that service was a shot show. But I'm pretty sure I overheard him say, I don't have anyone up there. Well, we have cabins to do, we have drinks to do. We have dinner service. Come on.
B
He was inventing and like you are now. And that's what I think. No, but I wouldn't be like this if he didn't start this. It's a fucking common theme all season long. And then on top of that, Ellie speaks to me disrespectfully, don't respect me. She doesn't respect me as a head of department. I'm so over. And he's like, oh, well, I think everyone's warranted to have a bitching session for as long as it doesn't continue. I mean, I'm on both sides.
A
Oh, really? Are you ever planning on getting laid? Because this is not how to do it. I'm on both.
B
I know. I'm like, sir, out of here, sir. And you know that Ben is in the wrong. But this is, you know, bros before hoes. This is. It's happening right here.
A
Yeah, but, I mean, I don't think Ben was a hundred percent. I still think Ben was being an asshole. But Daisy did just, like, totally desert the second those. Those fish came out. And Joao was doing it for Daisy. So I think in Joao's mind, he's probably like, I was the one fling the fish. You weren't even up. Like, what are you talking about? But, you know, still both sides. No, just lie. Just say, ben's wrong. I love you. Ben is wrong.
B
I think in Joao's mind, he is like a knight in shining armor. But what we see is that he is the exact opposite. Like when he initially, quote, unquote, broke up with Ellie and he like, couldn't even just say it to her, and he just, like, let her on again. It's all he had to do is say, I. That was fun the other night, but I really just see us as friends and just be done with it. But he's like, you know, he. He sort of went in this circuitous pattern with whatever he was saying. It was so. It was so ridiculous. He's just, he's just. These are easy things to take a stance on and he's just not doing it. And I don't know why he can't do it, but he's like, usually people take the path, that path of least resistance with Ben. And Daisy doesn't go for that path. She goes for the head of the head on Clash. And she does not like losing. It's a battle of two very big egos and a tick. And take it from me, I've been there. I've seen the repercussions. The battle between both of them can be detrimental to all of us. These adults need to sort this out. Haha.
A
Whatever. I'm sick of the galley. Good shot. Both sides, bitch. So then we go to the crew mess and Daisy, Ben and Ellie are down there and Daisy's like, ben, they want like a continental at nine. And Ellie's like, ah, Jason said eight. Well, maybe I said eight. Well, was it eight or nine? Why don't you go and ask them? She goes, why don't you go and ask them? I was just up there and Ellie, what. Where, where did you get that information from? She's like, jason said it, but I don't know who spoke to him. Okay, well, we were both there. So if he said it's eight, then it's eight. God,
B
eight is enough. So she's so mad. She's like, what Tweedledee and Tweedledom don't get is that I am trying to help them by giving them the wrong time for breakfast.
A
You know, that's not how you engage with me. She's so defensive. It's unbelievable. She never done anything wrong in her life. I'm sure of it.
B
It.
A
I'm absolutely sure of that.
B
So Daisy's like, you're winding me up. So Ben's like, okay, so breakfast. They're all on a continental. You've never done it before though. Mango meats. But let's write on. Let's write this on the board. Okay? You need to get. You need to cut the Fruit. You need to make a fruit platter. Pastries, bagels. Put on your bra. See how your boobies look in them. Sorry, I got distracted there. Put some bread in the oven. It's intense. Do you think you can put bread in the oven?
A
This is my moment.
B
This is go.
A
I'm so sorry.
B
No other me. I want to hear. This is important emotional moment for me. What am I feeling after this?
A
I will put sous chef on my Instagram.
B
Oh, I put pot of water on stove. I am basically Michelin star chef now.
A
All right, you're. You sure you're good to do all of this? Plus, cut the bread. Not the cheese, the bread. Right, boss. I'm on it. I'm up for the challenge.
B
All right, Judah. Gourds. I'm gonna go to sleep. Tell the audience how you're feeling now.
A
I was done.
B
Oh, well, okay. Well, in case you wanted a monologue, now would be a good time. Oh, yes. This has definitely been a rough season for me. And however I've grown so much, I've matured in many ways, and I've learned how to look at things from a different perspective, which is always the best.
A
Now I'm seeing things from floor because I am on floor. Now I'm seeing things from under table because I am under table.
B
You know, you'll get the best out of me if you give me a chance to prove myself. And if you buy my carrots so I can have milk.
A
All right, you're doing great, bubble bladder. So then the next morning is the last day of charter. Alicia and Jenna are in their room, and Alicia's like, hello, Ms. Jenna. Your poos always smell like baby poos.
B
That's. I feel like, not a great quality, perhaps. And she's like, but I haven't even pooped yet. It's like, have you not. Oh, maybe that was my poo.
A
I don't know.
B
So then Ellie is preparing her fruit platter, and Daisy goes to. We were in Daisy and Joao's room, and they're, like, making out in the bathroom. He's like, oh, now it's a party. And Ellie makes all these pastries. She does a very nice job. She really puts out a very nice continental breakfast. And Ben's like, wow, it looks like a bloody bakery in here. Well done, sugar gourds. I guess I already just said a gourd thing. Anyway, I'm really into gods today, so what can I say? Everything's about gourds. Sugar lumps.
A
So, yeah, she did a really nice job with the Breakfast stuff. And so they start running it up. Daisy's greeting the guests at breakfast. Ellie's like, well, wait, are there any guests around? Or what is going on? He's like, oh, I love the amount of communication we're getting. God, this is great. And meanwhile, one of the radios is off. I think it's their radio.
B
Wasn't this.
A
Right?
B
Wasn't this when the raid. There was a radio issue? Maybe it was a different part of the episode, but I thought it was right here, where basically Daisy is like, hello. Hello. They're ready for breakfast. But. But Ellie's like, oh, my radio was off. And so she doesn't hear Daisy say that. And then they're waiting around, and they're like, gosh, what's going on? Not realizing that they've already been summoned.
A
Yeah, this communication sucks. Meanwhile, Daisy's complimenting her. She's like, oh, Ellie did a good job this morning. Well, that's. And then Ben's like, oh, she probably doesn't even know where the guests are. Stupid Daisy. So, downstairs or upstairs? Downstairs, Upstairs. Wherever they're eating. They're like, oh, wow. This continental. This is crazy hot. Billionaires love this. I know so many of them.
B
Did you just. Did you just put a hedge into the middle of our continental breakfast? Sorry, force of habit. You didn't want that croissant, did you? Not anymore.
A
Whacking your omelette. Could you stop? Topiaries don't form themselves. But
B
did you just add miracle grow to my watermelon props?
A
And look, it's bigger. Now who's bitching?
B
Guys, Everyone who has a mustache, you're all gonna get extra pieces of cantaloupe, okay? Oh, I guess it's everyone. So Jenna's like, how's everyone doing? How are you doing, Bobby? You look tired. She's like, I can't feel my legs. Yeah, I use the elevator. You get that? The exact same amount of time. Work smarter, not harder. You know what I'm saying? Wow, Jenna, with that great elevator hack for going to a higher floor.
A
Truly, though, some people just won't do it. I mean, it's like that in real life, too. People are like, oh, I take the stairs. Okay, loser. Like, geez, why don't you just, like, find someone named Technology and just shit on their head, people?
B
I do.
A
Very hard to bring you elevators.
B
Here's what I do hate. You're in a tall building. You're taking the elevator down. Tall building already. We're triggered. But we're in a tall building. I actually Love a tall building, but you're in a tall building and you're going down the elevator, stopping so many places, and you're finally like, you've stopped at three floors and then now you're on a real good run. That elevator is going. You're whooshing down. You're just almost at the lobby and then at like m. Mezzanine, the elevator stops and someone gets on and takes it down one floor. I'm like, there is a stair. I guarantee you're on the mezzanine. There was probably an escalator that you could have taken or staircase, but you had to stop our flow when we worked so hard just to get to this point. I cannot stand when people take the elevator to go one floor down to the lobby. At that point, find a staircase to go down because you're going down. Okay. If you're. Obviously you, you know, if you're an able bodied person, whatever the. Whatever. That's probably not the nicest way to say it. I don't know what the proper term is to say it. Like, but if you're capable of. Of taking the staircase down and you don't take the staircase down, then you. You ruined my elevator journey. I'm.
A
I'm just staying quiet over here because I am that person. Sorry. That person.
B
Well, I'm not. I'm not. I don't approve, Ronnie. I don't approve. I can't support you if you. If there is an escalator or a staircase that can take you down to the lobby. I just don't think you should take the elevator that one floor down. Because the people who are in that elevator have probably had to make many stops. And you're so close to the end and to have to stop on the mezzanine.
A
But my favorite thing to do is to do that. And I'll be like, on the mezzanine. And then the elevator stops and everybody gives me a look and I'm like, oh, my gosh, is this going down? My bad. Guess I'll just wait. Wait for it to go back up.
B
Like doing. You know what I love? I actually love a passive aggressive won't get in the elevator moment. Like, I love standing with like four people at the same elevator bank. And then the elevator comes and they get in the elevator and they look at me like, are you coming to? And I go, no, because I'm like, I don't want to be in an elevator with you. I love that. But I don't say, I don't want. I just don't and, like, they have to think about it. Like, I wonder why he didn't want to get in the elevator with us. And then, of course, I wait 10 minutes for the next elevator, and then I'm mad at the person who stops me because I've already waited so long because I was being passive aggressive to
A
the first group elevator. So much manipulation to be had.
B
I know. Work harder. That's smarter.
A
So Ben and Ellie are still down there, and she's. And she's like, I was so happy with the little fruit platter.
B
It looks so cute.
A
And he's like, yeah, I liked it. You know, you've done really well. Like something out of Gourmet magazine. I've got a sous chef now. Actual sous chef crush today. And you might have that title tomorrow. Eh? And you could rub it in all their faces, all of them. Oh, gosh. First of all, why are you telling her that? If you're not going to give it to her, then don't tell her. Maybe. But I have to ask Jason. Yikes.
B
Yeah, that's shitty. That's like that. That, like, creates a lot of tension. If Jason says no, puts Jason in a bad position. Also, she put, like, croissants and fruit cubes on a platter. Like, it's like Goldberg magazine. I'm like, okay, so when Ellie first came on board, she was a stewardess and was willing to chop vegetables and clean. And since then, she's come an incredibly long way. She can now put those chopped vegetables onto a bladder. And I'm considering promoting Ellie because I'm proud of her and I want her to take something home that will show her accolades. I'm like, why don't you just, like, call up Jeff Probst and see if the Survivor art department can make one of those paper mache things that they gave to siree, because I think that's the best that you're going to do in terms of taking home a chachki from this show.
A
She goes back home, she's like, What happened to Ellie? What happened to our little fruit seller? So Ben's like, I'm gonna go talk to Jason about something, but I'm not gonna tell you what it is. Little girl. All right? And it rhymes with move left. All right, I'll be right back.
B
Move, move left. Oh, do fluff. I get a dole. What?
A
Tooth laugh. What are we playing? Music. All right, I'll be right back.
B

A
And yeah, are these people prompted to say things because there's this where suddenly they're like, oh, my God, this breakfast spread, it's amazing. It's simply continental. I've never had anything like it. And I know billionaires. And then there was that part earlier when they're like, wait a minute, are you the second stew? I feel like they're producer plants because why are they. Why are they acting like this?
B
But I do love plants. They love. I mean, look, it was a. It was a beautiful spread. We're not dissing that. But like, they were acting like they've never seen a breakfast spread before on a yacht. I mean, they probably haven't seen a breakfast spread on a yacht before. But either way, the point is that, like, you're supposed to be like, wealthy landscapers, and so you're supposed to be used to, like, wealthy breakfast spreads, you know, gonna die on some weird breakfast spread hill.
A
Well, it is very. It is very below deck where everybody acts like they're so rich and then they're shocked by the smallest thing. Things like, remember that lady who was like, can I get a butter. Could I get a. I don't need a butter knife for this.
B
Remember when she's like, I don't want butter.
A
I have to cut my fish. And Asia was like, oh, actually, that's a fish knife. She goes, oh, really? You're gonna school me? She's like, I've been doing this for a very long time.
B
It's a fish knife, you dumb.
A
Right?
B
Oh, that was Great. So in the bridge, Ben goes up to Jason like, so I want to recommend Elliot for a promotion for a sous chef position. And Daisy will happens to walk in right there. It's like, hi, I know you wanted a coffee. I'd love one. Thank you very much. And some sandalwood. So she. But she basically hears Ben saying about the recommendation for a promotion, and she's like, what the. It's like, well, I just see that she's cooking now. She's got. She got up today and she cooked the pastries. I know it's not big, but her role has transformed.
A
Yeah, it's completely different now. Now she's rolling turkey into tubes, putting them next to cubes of cheese. Completely change. And Jason's like, all right, great. So I'd like to recommend her for President of the United States of America.
B
Actually. It might be an improvement. So we will accept that.
A
Finally, a president that will be able to roll turkey properly.
B
I heard that the street of Hormuz was flirting with Joel.
A
I want to merge my genetics with the strength of our loose.
B
Until Joel finds love in me, I will continue to raise gas prices until they are $10 a gallon.
A
So Daisy hears this, and she's like, what the. Ben's like, yeah, you know, she's cooking now. She got up today. She made pastries. I know it's not that big, but her role has transformed. Completely different person.
B
Transform.
A
What is amazing is I can still jerk off to her in about under five minutes on Instagram. Pretty amazing. Give her a raise.
B
Her role has literally transformed. Now she can make little breaded ducks. It's gorgeous.
A
Now she can turn from a car into a giant killing robot.
B
She somehow made that big scary robot apologize to her. I don't know how she did that.
A
So now Jenner in the pantry, and Daisy's like, oh, Ben wants to promote her to shop. Can you believe that? And Jenna's like, well, she thought chef does. She hasn't cooked any meals for the crowd. And that's what Sasha does.
B
I don't know really what you said, but I feel like you agreed with me based on your tone. So I want to say thank you, because all she's really done is a golly Han job. I'm not. And I'm saying she's done her job. And by the way, I want to say another thing. Going back to. Going all the way back to Alicia saying that she felt like she. She thought she might be second stew after Jenna was demoted. We did not mention that. Then we cut to Alicia eating the leftovers off of the.
A
Oh, yeah. Eating the plates. And a lot of them do that. Asia does that too. Speaking of Asia, we brought her up before today, but, yeah, a lot of them do that. They'll just go eat straight off the plate.
B
And just because it's, like, someone else's food that you don't know. I just think that's.
A
You don't know where that's been. The other day, I saw this video that came up on my social, and it was this lady sitting in a car with a monkey, and she was drinking out of a straw, and then she passed the drink to the monkey, and then the monkey, like, was drinking out of the straw, but it wasn't really drinking because you didn't see any of the liquid go. I think it was blowing into the straw. I mean, lady, is this. Is this how we got the pandemic? I think we figured it out. I figured it out on Instagram.
B
Or it's just a very specific use of AI, But I don't think that
A
was AI because normally if it's AI, people are in the comments like, this AI slop. Like, they get really mad. Like, remember that time I thought there were actual babies performing the Housewives reunions? So stupid. There were these AI Videos of, like, baby versions of the Housewives, and I really believe. I was like, those babies are such good actors. They looked real. It's like, how did they get such good actors? They were AI.
B
AI. Yeah. So Daisy tells us Ellie has issues with everybody. She has problems with me and how I run the galley. She doesn't respect the interior. She has an ego. Ben trying to promote her as a big. Your Daisy, it's like, well, I know Jason's not gonna promote her. I don't know why I'm referring to myself in the third person. I think I just have had too much sandalwood sentences affecting my brain.
A
Yeah, someone said that. And Jenna's like, I'm not Sasha. I think it takes Ben's word. Quite sassy. So then Ben's like, well, it's up to you, Jason, but I think she's quite good. By the way, I've told her that I'm recommending her, so she's got to really take it out on you if you don't raise her. All right, have a good one there, buddy. By the way, your nuts are hanging out onto the seat. Yeah, that's how this kimono was sewn. But thank you. Please go.
B
I don't know, mate. All I'm trying to Think of is four charters ago, and we see a flashback to them fighting and Ellie wanting to quit. It's like. And then you get rewarded for behaving that way and then actually doing what you're supposed to do, Which I was glad he said this, because that's really it. Like, she's just doing the job that was assigned, and she's, like, done it, like, well, she's. Ellie's done a very nice job, I think probably better than any of us expected in that role. It's been great to see her flourish. And then she's gone off to culinary school after the season, which I think is super awesome. But, like, let's, like. Let's just, like, slow the roll here, okay? You got to work your way up to sous chef.
A
Okay?
B
You just. You just can't do it. I just don't think you can get it in your first season, okay? Like, you just have to. You put in the time, put in the effort.
A
So then Daisy's like, oh, it's insulting, to be honest. I'll throw a tantrum of the silence. I walk him right now. Okay, We. We all know you will throw a
B
tantrum right now in the middle of it.
A
Yeah, you're in a constant tantrum. So Ben's like, her role is transformed. Blah, blah, blah. He's still going. And Jason's like, well, it's probably not the right time. You know, Jenna's got demoted. That would send shockwaves through the whole yachting community.
B
Shockwaves. And guess what? I just got a call from every single yacht in the world, and they can't believe that I prematurely promoted a sous chef. Shockwaves, I tell you.
A
You know, Ben's already lost a sous chef this season, and Ellie's been reprimanded, and she's working her way back from that. A promotion has. Has to be warranted. All right? Now, I don't just hand those out, all right? They're not raffle tickets.
B
Demotions, on the other hand. Absolutely love them. Would love to. You're all demoted, especially the women. So he basically misses dismisses Ben. And then Ben's like, all right, then I will just leave in a very cool, chill way. And then Ben can't get out the door because he's. He's like, pulling it, and he's pushing it instead of pulling it. He's like, all right. Oh, it's one that you pull. I see. I see. Okay. Yes, Definitely take this man's advice on who to promote.
A
We're gonna demote anyone Demote this door.
B
All right?
A
I deserve more respect than that. So he leaves. And then in the crew mess, Alicia. Alicia and Batul are holding hands and Ben's like, oh, that is kind of weird. Crew contact is kind of weird. All right, let's get it together. Triscuit. Which tonsils?
B
You know, I just bought some Triscuits yesterday. Did you know, like.
A
Oh, Triscuits are good. I was thinking of. Wait, the one made out of wheat. The wheat straws or those wheat.
B
It's like straw. Yeah, it's like.
A
Oh, no, I. No, no, no. I hate those things. Oh, really? Yeah.
B
I enjoy a church. I got it. Because I. No, they're not as dry as they seem. They're. I think they've adjusted it. I think so. One of the perks of.
A
Don, tell me what my mouth feels.
B
No, I'm going to. Don't, Don't.
A
Don't gaslight my mouth. Yeah, well, I'm like, it's not that dry mouth.
B
Well, the Triscuits are really good. And especially, like, you really shouldn't be having them. Like a naked trisket. You should be dipping it into something or putting a piece of cheese on it. Let's be honest. Well, that's true.
A
You should be putting a piece of cheese on everything. Even if you're. If you're just chewing on your fingernails. Put a pizza cheese on it.
B
If you're having a piece of cheese, you should put another piece of cheese on top of it. No, but I made like a little spread yesterday. And so, like, the recommended serving was with a Triscuit. Literally, it called for a Triscuit in the cookbook. And so I got the Triscuits. And then I thought to myself, of course, you know, the only thing I could think of in that moment was Alicia going, cracker, got a cracker. I need a cracker right now.
A
I love a cracker.
B
I love a cracker. She will single handedly boost the cracker industry. I'm gonna tell you that. And I'm being fully serious.
A
I did actually, because I ordered some crackers too, from the store and I've been eating crackers as well, because I was like, I love a cracker, too. Like, why should I not have crackers?
B
I feel. I feel like we all eat crackers and the crackers are always around and we always see them in spread. We always reach to crackers. But I rarely think to myself, I need a snack. I need to go buy a box of crackers for that snack. I never like, yeah, center the cracker in my life or in my snacking. And so when I got these crackers, admittedly, they were part of a spread, but I also was, like, putting my hand in there and snacking on, and every time I had one, I was like, I'm gonna have a cracker. Like, every time I want a cracker.
A
Love a house. You should get a horse too. She loves horses.
B
That's incredible. I think I'm gonna try to go up to Rhode island, by the way. I'm just telling that right now.
A
You should do it.
B
Yeah, I'm gonna. I'm gonna go pizza. I really am. I'm gonna go to pizza mama. I'm really excited.
A
Yeah. That sounded like a little fun day trip from the city, but I found out it was three hours, so I don't think so. I don't think I'm gonna go that far for a slice, but, you know, Sounds fun. You take video for me. I'll watch it.
B
I will.
A
So Jenna and Daisy. Daisy's like, I've just done my job. I want to be chief Stew. Look at that. Well, can I go back to second seven? She's like, I don't know about that. I don't know about that. And they start laughing, and Ben's like, oh, God, that's crew contact is really weird. And Alicia's like, yeah, Says here with your tongue down Jenna's throat. He's like,
B
Yes. Since when is a. But since what has been a prude about crew contact, especially as someone who's making a lot of contact and has made a lot of contact over the years. Oh. Oh. I didn't realize he was joking. I was like. I was just so ready to be mad when he said that. I was like, oh, I know he's not saying that. So then Eddie walks in to Jenna's room. He does the. He does the knock and walk in, which I can't stand.
A
He keeps walking into women's rooms. This is, like the fourth time he's done it.
B
Yeah, of course. So he's like, hello, lovey. She's like, hi. It's like, all the towels are missing. Do you have any? Yes, you can take them. I'll give them back to be washed. How are you? I don't. I didn't even know, you know, when we spoke, I didn't. I didn't know that you lost your second stew roll, so I'm really sorry to hear that. Yeah, I'm not really. I'm upset with you. I'm not upset with you, baby. Like, I know, I don't really know what you said, but if you meant to say, I love you, Eddie, I'll take you back. I apologize. I'll be your wife. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life backpacking from hostel to hostel. The answer is yes, I will accept the offer.
A
I will impregnate you. And so he's like, you know, Jenna's taking me on an absolute roller coaster of a ride. You're a psycho. That's why you've been on a roller coaster ride. You fell in love with someone in five minutes, you fucking weirdo. He's like, but I just let my anger and emotion decimate my behavior. I feel so embarrassed. You fucking should. You fucking should feel embarrassed.
B
Yeah, you're a failure. So, yeah, he's like, you know, to potentially want to quit, that's not good. And that's not something I'm proud of. And I feel guilty now because she's just been demoted as well. And I can't help but feel like that's my fault, because it is your fault.
A
It is your fault. Yours and Ben's. It's a tax of your fault.
B
It was all your faults. And. And by the way, you. Oh, and now you're like, oh, but I feel better today now. Oh, great. Well, guess what? She still has one stripe. Thanks.
A
Well, yeah, you feel better today because you threw her under the bus, then got her to helped get her demoted, and now she's in a vulnerable position where you can swoop in again and act like Prince Charming and act like you're there to support her when you were really the one throwing her under the bus, you little shit. So now the guests are playing in the water, and Daisy. Daisy, Daisy. Dicey Daisy radios Jenna to start setting up for lunch. And then she kind of comes in to see if she can get gossip from Jason. Are you having chats with Ben then? And he goes, yes. She's like, all right, well, guess I'll just leave now. Came up here really, for no reason. Very important. I came to dust something. Look, I've dusted it. Nothing else to say. All right, I'll leave. God damn it. God damn it.
B
And then in the main salon, Barbie and Alicia and Joao are there, and Alicia comes in with a tray of glasses. She's like, that looked like a very grumpy face, or as we say in Zimbabwe, a zim bumpy face. Get it? Because we replaced the grump with the zim. It's very fun if you think about it. Anyway. Oh, you're just concentrating. Never mind. Why don't you smile? Smile like the pretty girl that you are.
A
You'd be a lot more prettier if you just smiled, toots. And she's like, yeah, she's trying to, like, balance glasses, so just let her, like, balance the glasses. Slick, really hard. And Elise is like, what annoys me is that I feel like something Daisy sees something in Jenna that she doesn't see in me. Yeah, a competent worker. Alicia, this spelled out for you. What is wrong with you? She's like. She's like. She doesn't see me busting my ass. Like, I don't know what I'm not proving. And she's made it really obvious that I'll never even get an opportunity to be the second in her eyes. Girl, you're the second in nobody's eyes. You've been here five minutes.
B
I know, I know. Barbie's like, so she said that to you? And she's like, no, but it's been inferred. Inferred by you based off of nothing. Okay, so Barbie's like, alicia puts in a lot of hard work, but she can barely delegate what's going on and hear her head. And honestly, I know I can do so much better than Jenna, but, like, unless you're head of department, like, who cares?
A
Yeah. So now the guests walk in, and they're like, oh, my God, Jenna's table is amazing.
B
Wow.
A
What a table. And then in the galley, Ellie's like, oh, we've come such a long way, Ben. There's been a big journey of growth for me, and I appreciate you being a part of it. And he's like, huh? I'm your sous chef now, you little gumdrop. Lost glossitis. Really running out of words here.
B
You know what? Don't put the point. Point.
A
What?
B
You got to keep the bean. Don't put the bean in the jar for that one. That was lovely.
A
All right, let's try this again, you little gobstopper. Glomerulus. Glomerulus. Glomerulus. It's a small tuft of blood. Capillaries in the kidney. All right.
B
God, now you're just being funny. My little potato pelvis. See? I can do it too. So Ellie's like, paint has tangled this carrot of a potential promotion, and I feel like if I do pull my weight, it is. And if it is offered, I will take it. No kidding. So then the guests are like, can we, like, dip our toes in the hot tub? Yeah, we'd really like to do that. And just, like, make sure it's cold because our beards are very sensitive, like, so Elisa's like, yeah, absolutely. So Alicia turns.
A
What is the cold request about? I've never heard that.
B
I know. I guess it's just, like, really hot outside. So, like, we want to. We want cold water because it's just,
A
like, laying in the pool kind of thing.
B
Yeah.
A
I was wondering if it was, like, cold plunge, but it has to be, like, super cold for that, right?
B
Yeah, super cold. I think they just want it to be, like, pool temperature, not, like hot tub, necessarily.
A
Oh, yeah.
B
So Alicia turns on the Jacuzzi and then promptly walks away. And Jenna is asking. They're just sort of getting some stuff ready and everything. And then meanwhile, while Lisa's downstairs, the jacuzzi is overflowing like a streganona pasta pot cauldron, if you will. So they're like, oh, my God, the Jacuzzi is about to overflow. Like, what do we do? What do we do? Oh, my God, it's gonna overflow, guys. It's gonna overflow. And Elise is just downstairs, like, just chatting with Jason.
A
You know, I'm a little stressed, you know, just trying to find bowls, but I can't find any bowls, so I'm looking for bowls. He's like, well, don't get stressed, mate. God. Meanwhile, overflowing. And Daisy walks by and they're like, oh, my God, Daisy. It's overflowing. He's like, oh, God damn. Radio, Radio. Duck, Duck. Daisy. Duck, duck, Daisy. The Jacuzzi's about to overflow. And Alicia's like, oh, my God, me. I turned it on. She runs up there. What were you saying about deserving a second stew position?
B
I know, exactly.

Watch What Crappens #3379 Recap
Below Deck Down Under S04E17 Part One: So Sous Me
Hosts: Ben Mandelker & Ronnie Karam
Date: May 26, 2026
In this lively episode, Ben and Ronnie dissect the latest drama aboard Below Deck Down Under, Season 4, Episode 17. The hosts revel in the escalating crew tensions, notably surrounding fish deboning debacles, questionably deserved job promotions, and egos clashing in the galley. They blend sharp humor with Bravo fandom, riffing on cast behaviors, problematic Instagram finds, and even the indignities of elevator etiquette.
On Eddie’s Instagram:
"It was one video after another of, like...I'm still winding up. It's like, oh, he is, he is [an incel]." (Ben, 06:12)
On Fish Service:
"You expect them to be able to debone a fish in two seconds? No, sir, he did this on purpose to start shit with Daisy." (Ronnie, 10:25)
On Crew Egos:
"It’s a battle of two very big egos...The battle between both of them can be detrimental to all of us." (Ben, 31:20)
On Daisy’s Management:
"If she knew how to fillet a fish, she would have been up there in two seconds proving that she could do better than Daisy." (Ronnie, 21:08)
On Sudden Promotions:
"Why are you telling her that? If you're not going to give it to her, then don't tell her...that creates a lot of tension." (Ben, 41:39)
On Alicia’s Competency:
"What annoys me is that I feel like Daisy sees something in Jenna that she doesn't see in me. Yeah, a competent worker, Alicia." (Ronnie, 59:34)
The episode expertly fuses Bravo crew analysis, biting humor, and social commentary, with Ben and Ronnie highlighting the absurdity of maritime workplace drama and its universal echoes—be it in food service, office promotions, or even elevator rides. Every meltdown, ego trip, and over-inflated chef title is lovingly eviscerated, staying true to the podcast’s tagline: "We mock because we love."
